....we will make do with a sicknote and a host of shiite as backup.

...ashley loses millions in a relegation.
No skin of the fans nose, PL money and benefits all goes to him anyway.
We may get rid after the parachute payments stop and enjoy a few wins in the process.
Toon will always be the Toon.

IF we dont get taken over by the Saudi's, i would not give two ****s if we got relegated and then again just so we could get rid of Ashley.
I will never put a penny towards this club while he owns it, its sickening to say it but id rather do a Sunderland to get rid of him, than to do the whole gamble with freebies and hope to stay up thing we have at the moment

Even if he’d not put a penny after his initial purchase but instead put in place a decent structure of people who know football - proper CEO, proper commercial manager etc. they would’ve maximised the income, used the TV money well and had decent managers & coaching structure from first team to academy. The club would’ve continued to be an established PL club, probably never have got relegated and would’ve been worth a lot more than it is now. The idiot could’ve sold it and made a massive profit but instead, he’s got involved, took the píss and has run it into the ground. I reckon even with all the money he’s made either blatantly or by stealth, he would’ve made more if he’d run the thing properly both with the profits on an ongoing basis and the eventual sale price.

...says something when I'd love to see us "do a Leeds" and spend 60 mill.
